Prophecy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF| I shall die hidden in a hut | A |
| In the middle of an alder wood | B |
| With the back door blind and bolted shut | A |
| And the front door locked for good | B |
| - | |
| I shall lie folded like a saint | C |
| Lapped in a scented linen sheet | D |
| On a bedstead striped with bright blue paint | C |
| Narrow and cold and neat | D |
| - | |
| The midnight will be glassy black | E |
| Behind the panes with wind about | F |
| To set his mouth against a crack | E |
| And blow the candle out | F |
